Some Sign



I haven't been putting out much personal work these days but this should give a vague idea of what I may (or may not) come up with in the near future, depending on economy (and the weather).

Mess Outside

The apartment usually looks better than this.

Under the weather (stupid cold), at home, filing shit and bored... What joy.

I suppose one of the better (or not) things about getting a bug (or two) and having to be cooped up at home is that due to boredom, one is pushed to do things one has pro-actively ignored on a normal basis, such as filing (not so) inconsequential mountains of papers that I am this close to just chucking out the window at the moment. Yes, that window. Even now, fucking blogging this, I'm obviously trying to get away from doing it, but alas, this post has come to an end.

Sam Haskins

Sam Haskins and Figgins Junior
A photographer went to a socialite party in New York. As he entered the front door, the host said 'I love your pictures - they're wonderful; you must have a fantastic camera.' He said nothing until dinner was finished, then: 'That was a wonderful dinner; you must hava a terrific stove.'

Basic Back


Autoportrait with Sanya Smith
Exposure unrecorded, Ilford Delta 400, 4x5


I've always wanted to get back to the basics but rarely had the time to engage in the less expedient manner of photographing. There's a sort of restraint and thought required when one is forced to work with much slower equipment and materials, something which I have always been keen on, but these days, have had no opportunity to do. I'm hoping this contact sheet will set the tone for subsequent posts.
